Chapter 244: Meaux

The weather near the border is not good.

The sky was overcast and gloomy, as if it was about to rain at any moment.

Ah Yu lifted the curtain of the car and stole a look at the sky outside.

When she was still warm, she rarely left Kyoto, especially after her parents and brothers died one after another, she became a pitiful insect trapped in the Duan Mansion, let alone Kyoto, and even the gate of the Duan Mansion never stepped out a few times.

The vast border scenery in front of you has never appeared even in a dream.

A mighty carriage was stopped outside the city gates, and the closed black gates were like silent beasts, even if they were silent, they were enough to shock people's hearts.

The carriage suddenly stopped, and when Deng Ao drove forward from the left, Ah Yu didn't even have time to put down the curtain in his hand.

Not long after, Deng Ao, who went to inquire about the news, frowned and walked back, as if he had encountered a problem.

Ah Yu was lying by the window of the car, not seeing the prince who always liked to walk back and forth around the carriage, she beckoned to Deng Ao curiously: "Uncle, why didn't the carriage go, was it stopped in front?" ”

It's probably the same process as when you enter the city from Kyoto, and even because it's at the border, it's even stricter!

She was ready to get out of the carriage and didn't mind anyone checking on her carriage.

It's just that the situation seems to be a little different from what she imagined.

Deng Ao looked back at Mo City, where the city gate was closed, and said in a low voice: "It seems that something very unusual has happened in the city, the entire Mo City has been sealed at this time, the people inside can't get out, and the people outside can't get in." I saw on the notice board at the gate of the city that it would take another three or five days to unseal it. ”

It didn't sound like a long wait, but before they could reach Meaux, the city near the border had already been ordered to be sealed.

Since the beginning of the lockdown, it has been more than half a month.

Only if they were lucky enough to reach the border city when the city of Meaux was about to be unblocked.

Not sooner, not too late, just right.

Ah Yu paused, through the thick curtain, she actually couldn't see the direction of the city gate, let alone the scene in the city, but she had an inexplicable intuition in her heart, the reason why there was a lockdown must be because someone already knew that there were traitors in the city.

Jin Xinyan on the other side looked at the closed city gate, the light in his eyes was extinguished, and finally froze on a very strange expression.

He looked at the Meo City, which had stood for many years, and said softly, "What a pity, a great opportunity......

Perks don't work very well at some point, either.

After Ah Yu and Deng Shuang got out of the carriage, they saw Jin Xinyan who went down to the city gate with his men, and they didn't know what they said, a small black head suddenly poked out from above the city wall, and the man shook his head under the city wall, and said loudly: "The general is making every effort to arrest the traitors in the city, in order to prevent the traitors from escaping, the city gate will not be opened until they are all caught." ”

"No matter who is standing under the walls, this door will not open until the time has arrived."

The young man's voice was loud and recognizable, and when he had finished speaking, he stepped back as if he had never appeared.

But everyone present took what he said to heart.

Most people look down on traitors who collaborate with the enemy and betray their country, and they are even more unwilling to let themselves be confused with such people. There was no need for the people in the city to let out cruel words, and the people outside the city were already looking for a place to rest in groups.

There were all kinds of people gathered outside the city, people everywhere.

However, most of them were merchants who brought goods from other places to the border to sell, and then collected furs and special medicinal herbs from the border gate, and sold them far away, so that they could make a lot of money.

Of course, this is also because the soldiers at the border gates, especially those who can often go to the battlefield, will have a lot of money in their hands.

On the contrary, there are very few people like Ah Yu, who just come to see the scenery of the border pass.

Basically, it's just a group of people.

Ah Yu turned her head to look at Deng Shuang, and suddenly remembered what the other party had said to her at the beginning.

"When we can enter the city by then, is Aunt Deng going to find your relatives in the Fan family first? Or do you go to the miracle doctor who might be in Meadow first? ”

Jin Xinyan, who turned around, naturally inserted into this conversation.

He stopped three steps away from Deng Shuang and asked Ah Yu: "Where did the magic doctor come from in a border place like Mocheng?" ”

He turned his head to look at Deng Shuang again, "Is it because you are not feeling well?" Why did you suddenly think of looking for a miracle doctor, I remember that the Wen family seemed to have brought back a miracle doctor from outside a few years ago, and even the little girl who stepped into the underworld was saved by him. ”

Deng Shuang glanced at him lightly, without the slightest personal emotion in his eyes, and when he turned his head to look at Ah Yu, the temperature in his eyes became more real.

The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she said to Ah Yu: "Let's go to my cousin first!" She had lived in Meaux for many years, and if there was an additional miracle doctor in the city, she would naturally know more than anyone else. ”

As for Jin Xinyan's question, she was directly left behind.

Jin Xinyan looked at Deng Ao, who was staring at him closely not far away, although he knew that Deng Shuang was deliberately estranged from him because of his brother, and her heart was not like this, but he still couldn't be happy.

It's probably because although Deng Shuang has taken the Forget Worries, she is often inexplicably distracted in recent days, and her gaze at him is also hovering between love and hate, so that he can't help but wonder if she has recovered her memory!

Deng Shuang could ignore Jin Xinyan, because she and him were in a sense on the same level, but Ah Yan couldn't do that.

Therefore, when Jin Xinyan set her eyes on her, she quickly explained the matter.

"Mr. Yang, who stayed in the Wen family as a doctor, is indeed known as a miracle doctor, but he cannot cure all diseases, and even if I find him from Kyoto, he will only be helpless when he sees Aunt Deng's symptoms. We had previously heard in Yecheng that a miracle doctor happened to be able to treat Aunt Deng's illness, but the other party's whereabouts were uncertain, some people said that he was at the border pass, others said that he was elsewhere, and it was not clear where he was. ”

All in all, there is a specialization in the art industry.

What they are looking for is not the divine doctor Yang in Kyoto, but the unknown divine doctor who does not know where he is, and can prescribe the right medicine.

After hurriedly speaking, Ah Yu ran back into the carriage, she really didn't want to face the Jin Xinyan outside.

In front of Deng Shuang, Jin Xinyan always looked like an amiable elder to her, as if he really regarded Ah Yan as a close junior.

If he hadn't seen the other party's ruthless appearance in private, Ah Yu might have really been deceived by his pretense. Literature Great

But if a person accidentally reveals a flaw and happens to be seen, then what he does is full of flaws in the eyes of the person who sees it.

This is the case with Jin Xinyan.

It wasn't what happened in Kyoto, but on the way to the border gates.

One day, because Ah Yu drank too much tea during the day, he was still exceptionally awake at night, and he couldn't brew the slightest sleepiness, so he wanted to get out of the carriage, even if it was good to look at the stars outside the car door.

But the quiet environment made Ah Yu dare not make too much noise.

She didn't open the car door, but lifted the small half of the car curtain and looked out of the car window with one hand on her cheek.

Because the carriage was parked by the tree by the roadside, the white horse pulling the carriage was tied to the tree, and the moonlight at night passed obliquely through the woods, and did not illuminate the small square of the world where the carriage was located.

In the carriage hidden in the shadows, even if someone sneaks out their heads, it is all dark in the eyes of outsiders, and there is no hiding person at all.

But Ah Yu can see the people outside very well.

She saw Jin Xinyan's ruthless appearance, and also saw how the person who knelt in front of him and wanted to beg for mercy lost his life silently.

Such a murderous person who knows how to disguise, Ah Yu doesn't want to provoke.

Her life was already short enough, and she didn't want to provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked, causing her already short life to be broken in half.

Deng Shuang frowned, Ah Yu's movements were a little too fast, and before she could react, the little girl had already jumped into the carriage.

She looked at Jin Xinyan standing in front of her, paused for a moment, and still followed Ah Xin's footsteps into the carriage, and did not talk to him too much.

In fact, it wasn't because Deng Ao was watching from the sidelines, but because she seemed to remember some memories.

The memory was still vague, but her intuition told her that she had lost something very important because of Jin Xinyan, and the importance was comparable to her life, or even more important than her life.

She couldn't remember what was so important.

Maybe it's an object, maybe it's an emotion, maybe it's even a person.

But she doesn't remember.

After Ah Yu in the carriage left Jin Xinyan's sight, she suddenly thought of the young man who was talking above the city gate just now, and she didn't know if it was her delusion, she always felt that the person's voice was very familiar.

There is a lot of strangeness in the familiarity.

Therefore, even if Ah Yu guessed the name, he didn't dare to shout it with 100% certainty.

Xie Huai'an, who was worried about Ah Yu, shouted according to the usual practice, and then fell down from the city wall, scratching his hair, a little unsure who the person he saw just now.

He shook his head, how could a delicate and frail little girl like Ah Yu appear at the border.

The wooden hairpin in the sleeve has been carved out of the approximate shape, he gently rubbed the wooden hairpin through the sleeve, and when he can skillfully carve the pattern, he will use agarwood to carve a hairpin for A. In fact, rosewood is also a very valuable wood, but I always feel that the meaning in it is not quite the same, but it is not as good as agarwood.

The emotions that were so gentle that they were almost weak were only fleeting, and when Xie Huai'an stood up straight, he returned to his previous unsmiling appearance.

Even if he has worked hard enough, in the eyes of outsiders, he can still only act as a vassal of others.

When he first came to Mocheng, Xie Huai'an didn't know how to hide his thoughts, if others smiled at him, he would definitely greet him with a smile, but he didn't seriously guess the true meaning behind the other party's smile.

That was when he was the most naΓ―ve, and he really thought that the man at the border was just like in the script, and he had no heart to speak of.

He didn't know how naΓ―ve he was until he accidentally discovered that others were talking about him behind his back.

It's not too late to learn from his father and brother's unsmiling appearance, which is more acceptable than his stupid and sincere appearance, and no one will object to his request for some inexplicable reason.

Obviously, Shangfeng issued a training notice, he just conveyed Shangfeng's request, but those people always found all kinds of excuses to avoid training, only he stupidly believed those lies, and even argued with Shangfeng for them.

True feelings are all wrongly paid.

Xie Huai'an glanced at the people who came over to change shifts with him, nodded and handed over to the people, and then walked straight to the government office in the city.

I have to say that Pei Yin's news came too coincidentally, and it was Fan Zeyu who found traces of the armaments in the city being moved.

Fan Zeyu didn't think about the traitor at first, but he couldn't stand some people from being too weak-minded, he didn't suspect the other party, that person was already preparing to escape, and he was told by the family, which was too much.

Xie Huai'an couldn't help frowning when he thought that he was asking the traitor's uncle in the government at this time.

He wasn't previously in charge of shouting on the walls.

At the dinner table one day, Xie Huai'an curiously asked what was written in the letter sent by Pei Yin, so that his uncle could directly make up his mind to rectify the traitors, directly seal the city, and make such a big move.

At that time, Fan Zeyu not only did not answer his question positively, but also sent him, who was finally mixed into hundreds of households, to the city wall, and let him stand on the city wall and shout.

Although it is not necessary to shout all the time, it only needs to be separated for a period of time to popularize the reason for the closure of the city to future generations, and then carefully tell the determination not to open the city gate until the time is over.

It's a simple thing, but it's not what Xie Huai'an wants to do.

What is the difference between shouting on the city wall and guarding the gate in Kyoto?

He didn't even want to stay in Kyoto as an imperial guard, he just wanted to make achievements on the battlefield with his own strength, and if he came to the border and could only shout on the city wall, then he might as well go back to Beijing to be his imperial guard.

Although it was only a light face, it was still stronger than it is now.

Sullen in his heart, Xie Huai'an's pace sped up a few points.

He had to go and show his uncle his determination again, instead of wasting time shouting on the city wall, it was better to let him train in the city for a while longer, at least the results of the training were his, and the result of shouting on the city wall would only be a sore throat.

Fan Zeyu, who was approached by Xie Huai'an, smiled mysteriously and said to him: "It's not that you will stay on the city wall for a lifetime, you continue to stand for two days, calculate the time, and you will be able to understand my intentions in a few days." ”
